Yo, peep this snippet from a recent Complex interview with Tracy Morgan!
You’re sober now, but you’ve had a history with alcohol. What’s the craziest thing that happened to you when you were drinking heavily?
Tracy Morgan: When I was wilding? I got kicked out of Prince’s house. The last time he won a Grammy, we went to the pre-Grammy party. Free booze all night. Prince had his band in the living room. Everybody left the house except for me and my boy. It was 6 o’clock, 7 o’clock in the morning, the sun was coming up, and we were still drinking. And Prince and his wife were at the door in their pajamas and said, “Come on, Tracy, you’ve got to go.” And I was gay for about five seconds because he’s a pretty motherf*cker. If Prince was a woman, I would go down on him. All the way down. Swell his vagina lips up.

In a matter of less than 5 minutes (seriously) a NY judge granted rapper 50 Cent one weekend visit a month with his 12-year-old son, Marquise, in addition to half of his spring and winter breaks and a full month in the summer. People magazine says that 50 Cent (real name: Curtis Jackson) and his ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Shaniqua Tompkins, avoided direct eye contact in the court room at the hearing.
“50 is pleased this has been settled and looks forward to spending some quality time with his son,” the rapper’s attorney Brett Kimmel tells PEOPLE.
“We came to an agreement,” Tompkins told PEOPLE after the hearing. “Despite my feelings for his father, I want Marquise and his father to have a healthy relationship. That’s what that time is for.”
No, he didn’t lose some bogus “dance-off” to T-Pain. No, he wasn’t arrested by the Feds. According to AOL BV’s Jawn Murray, comedian Katt Williams walked out during rehearsals after a spat with the show’s producer.
“Katt was disrespectful, difficult and demanding throughout the process and his unprovoked verbal lashing on the producer was unwarranted,” a source close to the production told Murray.
Apparently, the pint-sized comedian start the day off with an awry note after he arrived to rehearsals 3 hours late. And when a producer greeted him when his self-driven RV pulled up, he went off… CONTINUE READING
NEW YORK CITY // WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23RD 2008 »Sean “Diddy” Combs and the companies making daily deposits into his bank accounts (Sean John, Ciroc Vodka, etc.) threw a party last night at 1 OAK in NY to celebrate the mogul’s L’Uoomo Vogue Music Issue Cover.

Our friends over at TMZ broke a story early yesterday, reporting that R&B singer Lyfe Jennings (real name: Chester Jennings) led police on a high speed chase and refused to take a DUI test, resulting in his arrest.
Smyrna, Ga. police say they were responding to a gunshots fired call when they spotted Jennings’ Corvette hightailing it away from the scene. A chase ensued and Jennings eventually crashed. He was charged with felony weapon possession by a convicted felon and he faces charges of attempting to elude, as well as discharging a firearm near a public highway and refusing to take the sobriety test.
Lyfe was in prison from 1992-2002 after being convicted of arson.
A guy from Michigan who was busted in Connecticut for reckless driving told police a rather interesting story as to why he was driving so erratically. With flowers and a teddy bear in the car, he said he had arranged a meeting with Beyonce at the George Washington bridge in New York City.
33-year-old Robert Williams Jr., from Michigan, was taken into custody in Milford, Connecticut on Sunday after almost side swiping a cop car. But get this! After almost running into the police vehicle, the idiot stopped to ask the cops for directions and when he pulled off, narrowly missed the cop car and drove over a sidewalk.
In addition to other traffic offenses, the man was charged with reckless driving and speeding, and was taken to a hospital for mental evaluation.
We couldn’t make this sh*t up if we tried… But is he sure he was going to meet Beyonce? Maybe Sasha Fierce was the one who made the date! The police shouldn’t jump to the conclusions and all, saying the man’s crazy.
Hip hop mogul Diddy took the Enyce clothing brand from Liz Claiborne’s hands for $20 million bucks. Liz Claiborne had been wanting to get rid of the hip hop brand for a while now, after they realized they didn’t want to cater to that type of demographic, and decided Diddy was the perfect choice, since he’s been running Sean John so successfully and all.
“When we did our field research, we found a lot of people were aware of Enyce and it had a lot of the name recognition that’s missing from most of the brands out there,” Combs revealed. “But what happened was it stopped being marketed, and it fell out of the limelight. It’s our challenge to be innovative in our marketing to reintroduce the brand to the public.”
